  1. Driving Directions via Mapquest Get directions from anywhere to anywhere on your cell phone

  2. Operational Concepts • Gets driving directions just like on mapquest.com • Marketed towards end consumers • Doesn’t display maps – just text directions

  3. System Requirements • Cell phone • Supports java • Has internet/server access • Mapquest must be online

  4. System Architecture • Midlet inputs query from user • Midlet sends query to servlet • Servlet sends query to mapquest.com • Mapquest.com returns directions to servlet • Servlet parses directions, returns them to midlet • Midlet displays directions for user

  5. Lifecycle Plan • Small initial development • Midlet is very simple • Servlet has some complexity, but is very feasible given the short time frame • Future support could be problematic • Mapquest may change its query format, requiring changes to the servlet

  6. Feasibility Rationale • This idea is feasible • Servlet prototype went smoothly – the data we need is easily accessible • Parsing may be tricky, but is doable • There is a market for this product
